There's something Harry Potterish about that hat and suit, like she could be holding a magic wand instead of a cigarette. Or she might be reading the future in the cigarette smoke. She could be J.K. Rowling's French sister. Or a sorcerer. But friendly or evil? It's one of those ambiguous looks they give to a character that could be either.. I really like it.

Love the blue windowpane suit. Looks like a heavier weight wool. I want the man version. I'd wear it with a grid checked shirt, a polka dot tie, and a paisley pocket square. All in blue a la Beau Brummel, but with brown suede, heavily tooled brogues.

I love the hat, although it seems that some beautiful older women use them to hide their faces...not necessary!

Her outfit's a bit pretentious to me yet you captured her in a totally different light, the angle really works. I would've loved to seen what's on her feet, though.

I keep looking at the suit, then up at the hat, and expecting it to be a cowboy hat. The silhouettes are so similar, but you would never say that the super-French "floppy hat" and cowboy hats are very alike. I think that's what really gets me. This look is phenomenal. She's got it going on, whatever it is.

The hat and the suit are a bit of a disconnect...the suit should be of a more formidable material and depth to stand up to the hat...I would have paired that hat with a tailored camel jacket with black accents, for instance...but, at a glance, it looks very chic...

...and almost like Linda McCartney!

They do have the fabulous everything is Paris, don't they?! A great hat can take you very far...and they make a huge difference in staying warm on those chilly days.

Best,

Reve

She has something in the right jacket pocket. Without that bulk, the jacket would look better. Also, her hair is too long. Otherwise, gorgeous.
